‘The mythical mum poo’: The hilarious post about bathroom breaks

“It’s like a regular poo except they never happen”.

That was one mum’s opening message when she shared her story about finding the time to go to the bathroom. Yes, Krechelle is the mum behind the blog EightAtHome and she’s not shy about sharing an insight into her life with six kids. However, her latest post has struck a chord with many mums as she shares her thoughts on the elusive toilet break.

“I literally don’t have time to poo. It gives ‘not giving a shit’ a whole new meaning,” read her post on Facebook alongside a picture of her six children. “So you hold and you hold and then you become constipated but you can’t cry because somebody’s probably watching you poo. “So you cry on the inside like a winner, and then you get haemorrhoids.”

“I’ve literally shit my pants before. Not before becoming a mum. Oh no. But now I have; you tiny blessings," she continued. “It was definitely not a high moment, however it happens. And I just wanted to let you know; I’ve shit myself too.”

Finishing her detailed post, the mum-of-six wished her fellow mums good luck in their attempts at having a bathroom break, saying:

“So I’ll just end this by saying; good luck with your poos. May they be swift and convenient. “Every mums' real dream.”

The hilarious post has been praised by many mums who couldn’t help but share their own stories.

"After having a very nasty stomach bug for a few days where I could only peer at my little darlings through the crack in the door screaming 'don't come near me, the air, the door, the floor, anything, nowhere near!! Mummy doesn't wanna make you ill', I thought it would be too soon for poo jokes-but this is hilarious"
